Chao’s Alleged Chinese Ties Under Fire | US News

A new investigation alleges former Secretary of Transportation Elaine Chao held undisclosed positions with Chinese government entities and Beijing-linked groups during her time in U.S. Cabinet roles under Bush and Trump — including honorary titles tied to the CCP’s United Front and Wuhan municipal government. Chao’s team fiercely denies the claims, calling them racist, unfounded, and deeply insulting, noting she never disclosed these roles during her 2017 Senate confirmation and emphasizing her decades-long service to America.
